How large will the image be?

As large as the TV screen. i2eye supports three screen formats. The first is a picture-in-picture mode that has the incoming video covering about half the television screen and the outbound video in a smaller window. The second is full screen mode. This mode displays the incom- ing video across the entire television screen. The third is connection status mode. This mode displays the picture-in-picture mode and gives

you an idea of the upload and download speed.

Can I use the DVC-1000 with a non-D-Link directory service?

No. The DVC-1000 is designed to automatically connect to the D-Link Directory Service. This is a free service and is available to anyone with a DVC-1000. The Directory Service allows for calling another DVC-1000

Videophone by using a phone number instead of using an IP Address.

Do I need a PC to use i2eye?

i2eye is a complete standalone system that handles all the communications, so you don’t need a PC. Just connect it to the TV and broadband connection and go. You can also use it with any PC with video input capabilities.

Can I connect i2eye without wires?

Yes, there is an optional DWL-810+ device that allows you to configure your complete system without wires (note: you need a wireless router or access point). The DWL-810+ bridges from i2eye’s wired Ethernet connection to the AirPlus wireless router or access point that is connected to the cable or DSL

modem.

How easy is i2eye to setup?

Very easy. When users first turn on i2eye they will be walked through a Set-up Wizard that is designed to get the videophone up and working quickly. The wizard asks for the information needed to connect to a broadband Internet connection. Once the information is sent, i2eye will connect to the D-Link i2eye server. The server will assign a 10-digit

Internet telephone number” to the device. It will not be necessary to work with cumbersome IP addresses when you want to communicate

using the i2eye.
